VM 60 – submersible diaphragm pump
The IBO VM 60 submersible diaphragm pump is a compact device using
an electromagnetic drive, designed for pumping technically clean water in locations requiring
high discharge pressure with low power consumption is important. The small diameter allows
for installation in narrow, drilled wells, and the rotorless design is suitable wherever
where head is the primary consideration rather than flow rate.
Who is it for
-
Installation and service companies – a mobile, compact device for emergency emptying of tanks, pools, and flooded rooms.
-
Farms and horticultural businesses – high discharge pressure with low power consumption is suitable for watering from narrow boreholes.
-
Homeowners and landowners – the compact diameter allows installation in drilled wells with a minimum diameter of 120 mm.
-
Wholesalers and technical stores – this model expands the range with a compact high-pressure pump for applications where conventional deep-well pumps do not fit.
Applications
The VM 60 submersible diaphragm pump is designed exclusively for pumping technically clean water,
containing no solid contaminants or abrasive particles such as sand or silt.
The pump is designed to drain flooded rooms, empty pools and tanks, and also
for supplying small irrigation systems from narrow-diameter drilled wells. The pump is not a water-treatment device—for other uses, we recommend ensuring appropriate preparation.
The device operates vertically or horizontally, at a maximum pumped-liquid temperature of
liquids up to 35°C, in wells with a minimum internal diameter of 120 mm. The submersible
The VM 60 230 V diaphragm pump generates high discharge pressure, making it suitable
in systems requiring a high head with a low flow rate.
Features of the VM 60 pump
The VM 60 pump uses an electromagnetic diaphragm drive, which allows it to
to generate high discharge pressure with a relatively low power consumption of 250 W. The aluminum
the housing protects the drive system and assists in dissipating heat.
The pump is not designed for continuous operation—the maximum uninterrupted operating time is
60 minutes, after which a break is required to allow the device to cool down. The device
it has no built-in float switch or level sensor, so pump operation at low
direct supervision is required during submersion to prevent dry running.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) – VM 60 submersible diaphragm pump
What kind of water can the VM 60 pump pump?
The VM 60 pump is intended exclusively for technically clean water containing no
solids or abrasive materials such as sand, gravel, or silt. Pumping
pumping sandy water will damage the diaphragm.
How long can the VM 60 pump operate continuously?
The maximum uninterrupted operating time is 60 minutes, after which the device requires approximately
a 20-minute break to allow it to cool down. The pump is not designed for
continuous operation.
Does the VM 60 pump have dry-run protection?
No – the VM 60 pump has no built-in float switch or level sensor. Its operation
The pump must be monitored directly when only slightly submerged, and when the discharge connection emerges
from the water, disconnect the power supply immediately.
How does the VM 60 pump differ from NEMO, and how do I choose the right model?
The VM 60 pump has a lower lifting height (Hmax 60 m) with slightly higher efficiency
and power consumption, while NEMO achieves a greater lifting height (Hmax 80 m) with slightly
with lower power consumption. The choice depends on the depth to which the water must be lifted. If in doubt,
if you have any questions, please contact
contact with the technical department.
Where can I buy the VM 60 submersible diaphragm pump?
Dambat does not sell directly. The VM 60 pump is available from partners
at trade outlets, installation wholesalers, and authorized online distributors.
What warranty conditions apply to the VM 60 pump?
IBO – 24 months (2 years) of the manufacturer's warranty. Warranty and post-warranty service
provided by Dambat.
